Peanut Butter S’mores Sandwich Cookies

• 3 cups mini marshmallows
• 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Topping:

• 1/2 cup finely crushed graham crackers
• 1/4 cup melted chocolate (for drizzling)

Instructions

Make the Peanut Butter Cookies:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
3. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
5. Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, form dough into evenly sized balls and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
6. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork or your palm. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but centers are still soft.
7. Remove cookies from oven and let them cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
